Will Flik Wheels fit the 2006 (14mm) Lug bolts?

looking at edgeracing.com's sales and they have lotsa flik wheels.

In particular for me its the Flik Wasps. Will these fit the 14mm lug bolts for the post mid 2006 mini's or do i need to purchase a lug conversion kit. Kits I have in mind are TXwerks and uhhmm, anybody else?

Heeelp! I want to buy these wheels before the sale ends, or stock runs out!

careful with them Flicks..
they tend to be square a lot of the time, i went through two sets once, on my srt4 until i found a perfectly round set of Fliks.

there might be better wheels out there for the money.

Chubbafied,

The Flik wheels are able to take 14mm lug bolts and we do send them with the order. We always verify when we receive an order for an 06 Mini to see if it is the model with 12mm or 14mm. As for the comment on Flik wheels being out of round, it rarely happens and if it does happen then just contact us and we will take care of it. I hope this helps, but if you need anything else you can call me at my extension or PM me.
